Deborah, the mother of 6-year-old Jacob Israel Plai and his 8-year-old brother Asher Menachem Plai, who were murdered in the stampede attack in Jerusalem on Friday, said today (Sunday) to Walla!: "We loved our two sweeties so much, they had the face of an angel."
She added that the two were children "who love to help, righteous with a big soul. They spoke in terms of kindness and giving. They would go by every Friday and look for people to help them."
About her husband, who was injured in the attack and is hospitalized, Deborah said: "We hope that when he wakes up, the world will give him the strength to face the new reality."
The children arrived at the arena in their father's car, who dropped them off at the bus station in the Ramot neighborhood, where the family lives, so that they could go to Shabbat "Seva Baruchot" in Bnei Brak.
"They had the face of an angel."

8-year-old Asher was laid to rest last night.
He was buried next to his 6-year-old brother Jacob, who was pronounced dead at the scene.
Father Avraham is still hospitalized this morning at Shaare Zedek Hospital in Jerusalem.
Father Avraham took his four children with him to the bus stop in Ramot neighborhood in the capital on the way to a cousin's family celebration in Bnei Brak.
Three children were with him at the station, two of them - Jacob and Asher - were injured and another child was slightly injured.
Now it turns out that the fourth child was saved after he was delayed in his father's car parked near the bus stop.
The grandfather, Amos Brunner said this morning: "The father does not yet know the magnitude of the disaster. He needs great medicine."
Asher and Yaakov said: "They were spiritual children, pure and so eager, but apparently their luck ran out. This is a family earthquake, but also for the residents of the country. We need to take these things into consideration, get stronger and be more serious, each one in what he can for the uplifting of their souls ".
